MacConkey agar The crystal violet and bile salts inhibit the growth of gram-positive organisms which allows for the selection and isolation of gram-negative bacteria. Enteric bacteria that have the ability to ferment lactose can be detected using the carbohydrate lactose, and the pH indicator neutral red.

- In the colon, normal bacteria interact with undigested lactose, causing the signs and symptoms of lactose intolerance. There are three types of lactose intolerance. Different factors cause the lactase deficiency underlying each type. Primary lactose intolerance. This is the most common type of lactose intolerance.

Enterobacteriaceae Members of the Enterobacteriaceae are rod-shaped, and are typically 1-5 μm in length. They appear as small grey colonies on blood agar. Like other proteobacteria, enterobacteria have Gram-negative stains, and they are facultative anaerobes, fermenting sugars to produce lactic acid and various other end products.ost members of Enterobacteriaceae have peritrichous, type I fimbriae involved in the adhesion of the bacterial cells to their hosts. Some enterobacteria produce endotoxins. Endotoxins reside in the cell cytoplasm and are released when the cell dies and the cell wall disintegrates.

Summary of Biochemical Tests The selective ingredients are the bile salts and the dye, crystal violet which inhibit the growth of Gram-positive bacteria. The differential ingredient is lactose. Fermentation of this sugar results in an acidic pH and causes the pH indicator, neutral red, to turn a bright pinky-red color.Thus organisms capable of lactose fermentation such as Escherichia coli, form bright pinky-red colonies (plate pictured on the left here).he selective ingredients are the bile salts and the dye, crystal violet which inhibit the growth of Gram-positive bacteria. The differential ingredient is lactose. Fermentation of this sugar results in an acidic pH and causes the pH indicator, neutral red, to turn a bright pinky-red color.

Coliform bacteria Coliform bacteria are a commonly used bacterial indicator of sanitary quality of foods and water. They are defined as rod-shaped Gram-negative non-spore forming and motile or non-motile bacteria which can ferment lactose with the production of acid and gas when incubated at 35–37°C.

- There are many fermented dairy products that use L. acidophilus including yogurt and some types of cheese. Sweet acidophilus milk is consumed by individuals who suffer from lactose intolerance or maldigestion, which occurs when enzymes (lactase) cannot break down lactose (milk sugar) in the intestine.. acidophilus is a homofermentative, microaerophilic species, fermenting sugars into lactic acid, and grows readily at rather low pH values (below pH 5.0) and has an optimum growth temperature of around 37 °C (99 °F).

- Lactococcus lactis is not β-hemolytic and can be considered to be a harmless germ (generally recognized as safe (GRAS)). Nevertheless, few cases of human infections (blood and urinary tract, eye, systemic infections, endocarditis) have been reported.

DIFFERENT TYPES OF AGAR Mac Conkeyâs Agar plate A common application of this stain is in the preparation of EMB agar, a differential microbiological medium, which inhibits the growth of Gram-positive bacteria and provides a color indicator distinguishing between organisms that ferment lactose (e.g., E. coli) and those that do not (e.g., Salmonella, Shigella).he pattern of lactose fermentation and H 2 S production aids in the identification of the organism subbed to the plate. HE agar is designed to isolate and recover fecal bacteria belonging to the Enterobacteriaceae family. HE is particularly useful in isolating Salmonella and Shigella.

Enterobacter The genus Enterobacter ferments lactose with gas production during a 48-hour incubation at 35-37 °C in the presence of bile salts and detergents. It is oxidase-negative, indole-negative, and urease-variable.

Escherichia coli E. coli is a Gram-negative (bacteria which do not retain crystal violet dye), facultative anaerobic (that makes ATP by aerobic respiration if oxygen is present, but is capable of switching to fermentation or anaerobic respiration if oxygen is absent) and nonsporulating bacterium.

American Society for Microbiology Journal of Clinical Microbiology ABSTRACT. The presence of lactose-fermenting Salmonella strains in clinical case materials presented to microbiology laboratories presents problems in detection and identification. Failure to detect these strains also presents a public health problem.s early as 1887, it was known that Escherichia coli was a lactose fermenter and that Salmonella was not a lactose fermenter. Therefore, most differential plating media commonly developed and used today for the isolation of Salmonella contain lactose (16, 17, 31).

Lactococcus lactis Lactococcus lactis is known as a bacterium that’s Gram-positive. It is used in the industry for the production of cheese and buttermilk. Lately, it was utilized as a genetically modified organism for treating various diseases.ecently, Lactococcus lactis entered the biomedical area. It was soon discovered that the bacterium can be a delivery vector for the immune modulatory and therapeutic proteins and also for antigens. Animal and in vitro studies confirmed this beneficial fact.

- Some bacteria can grow in the nutrient medium but cannot ferment the sugar, while other bacteria can ferment the sugar, producing nonacidic and/or gaseous end products. In both cases, the medium will remain alkaline, or red.Some of the nonacidic end products of fermentation are acetone, butanol, and ethanol.acillus subtilis can ferment more than one type of sugar, such as sucrose and dextrose, but cannot ferment other types of sugars, such as lactose. B. subtilis is a gram-positive rod often found in soil and decomposing organic matter; it is a common laboratory contaminate.

Gram-positive bacteria The spore-forming bacteria can again be divided based on their respiration: Bacillus is a facultative anaerobe, while Clostridium is an obligate anaerobe. Also, Rathybacter, Leifsonia, and Clavibacter are three gram-positive genera that cause plant disease.

Objectives: Gram Positive Cell Wall: Gram-positive bacteria have a thick mesh-like cell wall which is made up of peptidoglycan (50-90% of cell wall), which stains purple. Peptidoglycan is mainly a polysaccharide composed of two subunits called N-acetyl glucosamine and N-acetyl muramic acid.

Introduction to the Microbiology of Food The viruses are important to the food process in two respects: 1  As a bacteriophage of lactic or other fermentative bacteria. 2  Bacteriophage infections of starter cultures can interfere seriously with the manufacture of cheese, buttermilk, sauerkraut, pickles, wine, beer, and other desirable fermentative products. few of the E. Coli strains found in human feces are in themselves pathogenic, causing infection and disease. These are called Enteropathogenic E. Coli or EEC. In one extensive study of the feces of food handlers (Hal and Hause, 1966), 6.4% of the workers harbored the EEC organisms as carriers.

- 90% to 100% of Enterobacter aerogenes strains can ferment glucose, sucrose, and lactose. The same percentage of strains produce gas as a byproduct of that fermentation.on-lactose fermenting bacteria utilize peptone instead of lactose.  This can be seen in agar where the formation of ammonia leads to  white colonies on the plate. Some bact … eria in this group include  Salmonella, Yersinia, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Shigella.

- Both media are  also differential for fermenters. MacConkey agar plate contains  lactose but EMB also contains sucrose in addition to lactose.  Moreover, MacConkey agar plate has bile salt that inhibits gram  positive bacteria, but EMB contains aniline dyes (methylene blue  and eosin).
